**This episode was originally published on February 6, 2024, but the warm days from the last few weeks have had me bumping PHASOR a lot, so - let's hear from Roberto!**

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Helado Negro on the show. After talking a little about his process and the story of Lupe Lopez, he takes us on quite the journey (including me reacting to one of his off-the-cuff picks live - ha!). We get into the all-time greatness of Teddy Pendergrass, Piero’s timeless moments, Bonnie Raitt’s calypso side, the utter seduction of Maria Marquez’s “Loveroom,” Caliban bringing it, the understated magic of Luiz Bonfa, being moved to tears by Xenia Rubinos, and so much more!
